Brand new from Yakima Racks is the 8004052 Yakima EvenKeel Kayak Rack Saddles. A very affordable solution for carrying any style of kayak - recreational / sea kayaks, SOT Sit-On-Top kayaks, whitewater kayaks, tandem kayaks etc – on your car’s rooftop. The Yakima EvenKeel mounts directly to any factory rack crossbars as well as the cross bars found on roof rack systems  from Yakima, Thule, Inno and more. Includes straps and a pair of bow and stern tie-downs. No need to manually adjust the saddles to fit your kayak’s specific hull shape, simply load the boat and as you strap the kayak down, the EvenKeel saddles automatically flex (using FlexHull technology built into the saddles) and snugly fit and protect the kayak while in transit.
